The Power Enthusiast
MINERVO 125: A Promise
The sun shines brightly, rising just above the crown of the human head, which signifies the time is already noon. The sound of the whirling waves crashing against the rocks and sweeping the shore, Sea birds flying on the horizon across the vast ocean, lighthouses standing firmly on the cliff, and the, large ships moving at sea level, fishermen who flock to small boats, and the crowds of people passing by in the city center, also decorate the beauty of Barasta City.
There's a lot of things that Paul's got here, and it's going to be a valuable experience.
“Hah... exhausting,” Now, Paul with Isabella, Abbas, Lizzie, and Rara were sitting lined up on the pier, looking at the vast blue sea that stretched before them. “I didn't think you could be in jail that way, you should have rebelled against those fucking cops! They are just stupid people who just do the job without understanding the real situation! I hate the cops!”
Lizzie and Rara just look at each other, then the tomboy girl replies to Paul. “I'm sick of those cops too! But I'm more sick of the Rara family calling them! Just imagine! They were already around my house, besieging every point, at which point I had just woken up from my sleep! That's so gross!”
“And that too,” Rara spoke. “Makes us panic and forced to leave 20 of my very valuable bags at Lizzie.” house
“But stop!” Paul tried to forget all the bad things that had happened in Barasta. “What is important is that you are free and can breathe fresh air with us! Isn't that more than enough?” Paul raised his chin, looking arrogant. “Thank you to us! Stupid!”
Honestly, Lizzie still hates Paul, she wants to beat him up in the face, but unfortunately he can't do that in front of Rara. This little friend of his was even familiar and considered the three people sitting next to him as his new best friend. Lizzie so could not show her hatred like before.
“Yes yes, thank you very much!” lizzie said with a loud snort.
“By the way,” Isabella smiled, her eyes focused on Lizzie's right arm that was tied and squeezed with wood. “What happened that your right arm broke so? Are you too excited to masturbate until your bones break?” Isabella giggles herself. “Yeah, it must be fun, huh?”
“This is all because of him!” Lizzie pointed at Paul with her left hand. “He broke my bones while I was busy slaughtering the Rara family!”
“Oh? Really?” Isabella pretended to be surprised, then her gaze shifted to the figure of Paul sitting next to her. “Jeez Paul, you're so naughty, huh?”
“DIAM!” Paul's annoyance reappeared when he heard Isabella's words. “I did that because he was too vile while torturing others! I can't let it! I'd rather attack someone once dead! Instead of attacking him many times and it turns out that the person is not dead! That's too crazy!”
Reflexes, Isabella was heartbroken at the talk. “Yeah, I didn't think that you were...” Isabella brought her lips closer to Paul's ears with a seductive gasp. “...Have a heart as soft as silk.”
“Stay away from me! Goddamnit!” Getting sensual treatment, Paul immediately pushed Isabella's head to get away from him.
Lizzie seemed unconcerned, while Rara let out a crisp laugh watching Isabella and Paul's ridiculous manner. Then, Lizzie's eyes shifted to the presence of Abbas who had just been silent and smiling here.
“Only this time there is a person who can be revived when my deadly poison has made him completely dead, whereas I am sure, you will not be able to be saved even by my antidote. Because actually, my antidote is still in the development stage,” Lizzie snickered haughtily as her eyes looked at Abbas. “Lucky once you, yes. Can live again after being on the verge of death.”
Paul, Isabella, and Rara fell silent, apparently wanting to hear Abbas' reaction to Lizzie's taunting remarks.
Abbas stared fixedly at Lizzie's face with very calm eyes. “Nothing,” replied Abbas with his heavy voice so smooth. “That means, I can't die yet. I still have a duty as a hero in this world, so,” Abbas puts a faint smile on Lizzie. “I have to stay alive.”
Impressed by Abbas's words, Lizzie was silent for a moment, she did not expect that the burly man had such an amazing thought. Not only Lizzie, Rara's face was gawking to hear it.
“You are a man who does not talk much, but once he speaks..,” Rara gulps her saliva, fascinated by the figure of Abbas. “...you are able to conquer many souls!”
Abbas just smiled and smiled, not responding to Rara's words. As Rara grew more and more fascinated with those smiles, it seemed that the little girl was beginning to fall for the figure of a quiet man like Abbas.
Paul is astonished at Rara's behavior, while Isabella giggles at it. “Alright,” said Isabella in her soft voice, she got up from her sitting position, and as she stood up, the wind hit her face, making her long red hair sway with the wind. “Because Lizzie is ready to be a hero, how about we just go home? I miss the others so much,” Isabella swung towards Paul who was still sitting back. “You must miss too, right, Paul?”
“Me too,” Abbas got up, stood with Paul and Isabella. “Very misses them.”
Lizzie and Rara, who were not very understanding of the words of the three people, who suddenly stood up in turns, made them look like ignorant fools.
“Rindu?” Lizzie raised her eyebrows, looking astonished at the talk. “Actually you miss who?”
“Just relax,” reply Paul with a small grin on his lips. “You'll meet them soon too.”
“DISCOVER WHO!?” For some reason, Lizzie got upset. “I suspect, lest you want to meet me with other weirdos like you!?” Lizzie gritted her teeth, then got up nimbly, and looked sharply at Paul's face. “Quick tell me! Who ‘they’ are you referring to?”
Lizzie had not heard Paul's answer, suddenly there was a rumbling sound from a machine flying over the sky. His voice grew closer and closer, until Lizzie and Rara finally raised their heads, and they were wide-eyed when they saw a large helicopter about to land on the shore, right in front of them.
“H-HELICOPTER!” Rara was excited when she saw a helicopter descend before her eyes, it was truly amazing. “I-IT'S HELICOPTER!”
“Big once,” Lizzie until made riveted. “I just first saw it directly.”
After the helicopter landed perfectly, Isabella walked casually towards the object, followed by Paul and Abbas. “Come, you guys go up too!” Isabella cried with a wave of her hand at Lizzie and Rara who were still in place.
“Wait, why should we ride with you guys?” Lizzie does not understand why she and Rara were asked to board the helicopter.
“Lizzie,” Rara touches Lizzie's left arm gently. “You've been recruited by them to be a hero, so you have to come with them.”
“That means, you should come with me too, right?” Lizzie smiled at Rara. “Then, let's go!”
Suddenly, as Lizzie pulls Rara's arm, the little girl does not move. “No,” Rara shook her head, making Lizzie shocked. “I'm here, you don't have to worry, Lizzie! Even if I don't come with you, I'll keep calling you! So, you need to keep your phone active, yeah! I will support you from here! Anyway when we meet again, you should already be a great hero!”
Feels painful. So painful. When you hear your most dear friend, say goodbye like that. Lizzie's lips instantly shook, her eyes glazed over, without any more ba-bi-bu, the girl immediately hugged Rara very tightly, even this time tighter than her previous hugs.
“I LOVE YOU! RARA!”
Rara smiled on Lizzie's shoulder. “Come on Lizzie, they're waiting for you.”
“No-no-no! Anyway you should come with me!”
“Lizzie, I'm angry youh!” Rara immediately took off the hug and looked at Lizzie's face with pouting lips. “You made them wait a long time, loh!”
With a heavy heart, Lizzie finally steadied her heart, though sore, to go to the helicopter, leaving Rara at the dock alone. The little girl smiled broadly as she saw that Lizzie had already entered the helicopter, she waved her hand.
And as the helicopter began to rise and ascend, hovering in the sky, Lizzie instantly popped her head out at the window and shouted very loudly, to a small point far below, which was Rara's whereabouts.
“AKU PROMISE! I'LL COME BACK AND HUG YOU AGAIN, RARAAAAAAAAA!”
